Proteomics of the lysosome

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2009
Defects in lysosomal function have been associated with numerous monogenic human diseases typically classified as lysosomal storage diseases. However, there is increasing evidence that lysosomal proteins are also involved in more widespread human diseases including cancer and Alzheimer disease.

Proteomics of the Spermatozoon [PDF]

Balkan Journal of Medical Genetics, 2012
ABSTRACT The study of the sperm proteins is crucial for understanding its normal function and alterations in infertile patients. The sperm is a highly specialized cell with a very large flagella, with little cytoplasm and a highly condensed nucleus. The most abundant proteins in the nucleus of mammalian sperm are the protamines. The main functions

Purification and characterization of a thermophilic NAD+‐dependent lactate dehydrogenase from Moorella thermoacetica

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The thermophilic acetogenic model organism Moorella thermoacetica can utilize lactate as substrate. The formation of lactate by reduction of pyruvate is energetically favorable, but the reverse reaction, the oxidation of lactate to pyruvate with NAD+ as electron acceptor is challenging.

Identification of functional gene modules by integrating multi-omics data and known molecular interactions

Frontiers in Genetics, 2023
Multi-omics data integration has emerged as a promising approach to identify patient subgroups. However, in terms of grouping genes (or gene products) into co-expression modules, data integration methods suffer from two main drawbacks.

Guidelines for the next 10 years of proteomics [PDF]

Proteomics 6, 1 (2006) 4-8, 2009
In the last ten years, the field of proteomics has expanded at a rapid rate. A range of exciting new technology has been developed and enthusiastically applied to an enormous variety of biological questions. However, the degree of stringency required in proteomic data generation and analysis appears to have been underestimated.

Proteomics in Diagnostics [PDF]

Disease Markers, 2004
For many diseases, such as heart disease and cancer, early detection plays a pivotal role in the survival rate of the patient. When detected early, many such lethal diseases can be effectively treated with existing remedies. The difficulty remains, however, how to effectively detect such conditions at the earliest possible stage with a high enough ...

Red blood cells could protect miRNAs from degradation or loss thanks to Argonaute 2 binding

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The present work investigates the presence and the stability of miRNAs into RBCs, both native and engineered. The observed stability is due to the Ago2 bound resulting in minimal RISC. Indeed, if the miRNA‐Ago2 complex is present, miRNAs are protected from release or degradation and they are biologically active. Thus, RBCs can act as miRNA carriers for

Hydrophobicity causes anomalous migration of cystine/glutamate antiporter SLC7A11 in SDS‐PAGE with low acrylamide concentration

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
SLC7A11 frequently migrates faster in SDS‐PAGE. The present study found that the high hydrophobicity of SLC7A11 causes its anomalous migration in SDS‐PAGE with a low concentration of acrylamide gel. Replacing isoleucine with asparagine reduced hydrophobicity and restored its normal migration at 55 kDa, revealing the role of hydrophobicity and gel ...

Simulated digestions of free oligosaccharides and mucin-type O-glycans reveal a potential role for Clostridium perfringens

Scientific Reports
The development of a stable human gut microbiota occurs within the first year of life. Many open questions remain about how microfloral species are influenced by the composition of milk, in particular its content of human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs ...

On the unknown proteins of eukaryotic proteomes [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
In order to study unknown proteins on a large scale, a reference system has been set up for the three major eukaryotic lineages, built with 36 proteomes as taxonomically diverse as possible. Proteins from 362 eukaryotic proteomes with no known homologue in this set were then analyzed, focusing noteworthy on singletons, that is, on unknown proteins with
